Explanation:

The faster a stream flows, the larger the size of particles it is able to transport.

Fast moving stream due to their velocity and momentum can exert more force and impact larger materials more causing them to move readily.

  • The faster the speed of stream the larger the size of sediment it is able to transport.
  • This why the edges of oceans contains very coarse particles whereas the still deeper waters are made up of fines.
  • A stream is able to transport sediments in three forms:
  • As solution in dissolved forms
  • As bedload which made up of large boulders.
  • As suspension

A6 kg bag of rice is on the top shelf at a grocery store.
netineya [11]

Answer:

<h2>117.6 J</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 6 × 9.8 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>117.6 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

A beam of light is emitted 8.6 cm beneath the surface of a liquid and strikes the air surface 7.2 cm from the point directly abo
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

n = 1.56

Explanation:

The total reflection attempts occurs when a light beam passes from a medium with a higher index to a medium with a lower nest, at an angle where it occurs we can find them by the refractive relationship

             n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

             n1 = n2 / sin θ₁

For this relationship to be fulfilled, the liquid index must be greater than the air index divided by the sine of the critical angle

Let's use trigonometry to find angle

               tan θ = y / x

                θ = tan⁻¹ 7.2 / 8.6

                θ = 39.94º

         

                n₁ = 1 / sin 39.94

                n = 1.56

This is the refractive index of the liquid

The bearing of a lighthouse from a ship was found to be N 37 degrees E. After the ship sailed 2.5 miles due south, the new beari
ella [17]

Answer:

The distance between the lighthouse and the ship

from the start position A = 5.08 miles

from the Final point B = 7.23 miles

Explanation:

Note: Refer the figure

Let the position of the lighthouse be 'L'  

Given:

When the ship is at the position A, ∠DAL=37°

Now, when the ship sails through a distance of 2.5 i.e at position B

mathematically,

AB=2.5 miles

∠ABL=25°

Now,

∠DAL + ∠LAB = 180°

or

37° +  ∠LAB = 180°

or

∠LAB = 180° - 37° = 143°

Also, In ΔLAB

∠LAB + ∠ABL + ∠ALB = 180°

or

143° + 25° + ∠ALB = 180°

or

∠ALB = 180° - 143° - 25° = 12°

Now using the concept of the sin law

In ΔLAB

\frac{AL}{sin25^o}=\frac{2.5}{sin12^o}

or

AL = 5.08 miles

and,

\frac{BL}{sin143^o}=\frac{2.5}{sin12^o}

or

BL = 7.23 miles

hence,

The distance between the lighthouse and the ship

from the start position A = 5.08 miles

from the Final point B = 7.23 miles
